Subject: Re: [AI] Some solution: How to over come the problem when we are
ina restoront.
Dear all,
I have some sort of solution to offer for problems faced by the visually
impaired in restaurants.
We all know that blind & low vision people have to depend upon their
sighted
friends for reading out the menu or they just ask the waiter who may not
read out all the options. Overall, visually impaired are not able to enjoy
the eating out experience.
We have prepared a Popular Restaurants Menu Guide which contains complete
menus of major restaurant chains such as McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Dominos,
KFC, UDIPI, Sagar Ratna etc.
One can look up this menu at home before giving an order for home delivery
or when in the restaurant look up the menu in the mobile phone.
I will provide it as a DAISY Talking Book & easy to read HTML format
during
the Accessindia convention.
Please do not ask for it now, I have to give some finishing touches and it
will be ready just before the convention. Afterwards I will make it
available for download.
Another reason for this initiative is the fact that although most
restaurants offer their menu on the internet, unfortunately their websites
are not accessible. Their webpages carry attractive pictures of the dishes
which is not easily readable with screen reader.
Hope it will be of use to many and others will also create similar guides
for covering more restaurants and places.
Regards,
Prashant

us

at first there was no one to attend. Now you can't hear the one who
serves because of noise. Is the question aimed at anything positive
or merely for arguing. (at the least, I feel)

Dear Friend's,
Hope that you all are fine.
You all know how to use the cane and you all know all the gadgets
which we can use.
But my question is If you are attending a Marriage party alone and
the food is served in a Buffet style then How will you serve your
self?
Here there are no servers you have to go to the serving place and
take it.
You have to hold the plate and the cane How will you manage?
The plate is heavy.
Please give me a proper answer.
With regards,
Phen Varghese

Dear Phen,
I would like to introduce myself, I am Kapilan Rao son of Umarao. I
do understand your question, it is not difficult to hold a heavy
plat in one hand and your cane in the other. You would have to rest
the plat on your hand and hold the bottom end of it with your palm.
They will usually be some one at the other end of the table serving the
food.
When they see the cane they would diffinately try and help you. When
you arive at the food counter ask the person serving to describe
what the dishes are and how spicy it is. If you do this you would be
able to manage with out any difficulty. thanks
Warm Regards,
Kapilan,
